Default External wastegate locaiton and mounting place

I want to ask where to mount external wastegate? Will it be ok to mount on 2 cylinders on 2wd manifold (on one side of the header)? As you know 2wd manifold is of 2 parts and them are divided. One side flows from 1 and 4 cylinder, another side is 2 and 3 cylinder. will it be ok to waste only form one side? in other words from 2 cylinders only?

What are the disadvantages of such setup?

Thanks

i found reyland one, the wastegate is attached in the middle of divided manifold sections, so it wastes from all 4 cylinders. The main questions is: can I waste the exhaust gases only thgru one side of the manifold? Simple to say from 2 cylinders only: from 1,4 or 2,3 cylinders?

it would be easier to mount in one side, more free space for wastegate, etc.. but i want to get information from specialist, what are pros and cons of such mounting. thanks
